EAST TEXAS (KYTX) - The Centers for Disease Control is warning everyone to take precautions against West Nile Virus.
Since January, about 240 people have contracted the virus, that's the highest number at this time of year since 2004.
Most cases are in Texas, Mississippi and Oklahoma.
August and September are usually the peak transmission periods so having this much activity this early and this widespread is cause for concern.
The most common symptoms include fever, headache and body aches, But the virus can also trigger potentially deadly symptoms such as inflammation of the brain. People over 50 and those with cancer or diabetes are at greatest risk for serious illness.
To keep the bugs away, experts say you should look for products that contain Deet because they are the most effective.
